Outstanding! This space was perfect - cozy, amazing views, trails within a block away, and the hosts were great. I would 100% stay here again and highly recommend!
Kitchen was fully equipped and well organized, so itens csn be located eadily.Hot tub was hot, a nice relaxing feature we were happy to take advantage of. Hope we stay again in the future. Very cozy and homelike.
We enjoyed our stay very much. It was clean, had a well equipped kitchen, and comfortable outdoor seating space. There are stairs to the studio apartment and between the outdoor seating area and the pool, so one needs to be able to climb the stairs. We visited Muir Beach and Muir Woods, Point Reyes National Seashore, and Sonoma. One definitely needs a car for the place. Great views!
This property was everything stated and more. You could tell that Mark and Jodi take pride in the property and making their quest stay comfortable. We would love returning to this guest cottage.
Lovely place with everything we needed for a comfortable getaway. Hosts were excellent at communicating! Location is close to restaurants and a straightforward drive to the coast and SFO.
Was the perfect place to relax and rest after spending time with family. We loved getting to take in the view in the evening and morning when we got up!
The place was ideal. It’s a beautiful place and very convenient to get into the city to do sight seeing. We didn’t stay at the property much but we were able to use the hot tub and pool which was great. Highly recommend staying there if you’re looking for a place in the area.
Great communication with the owner! The home was beautiful and cozy! I could have lived there, that’s how comfortable it was. Very clean and comfortable beds, Well stocked kitchen also. The stairs were a bit tricky but I managed! If ever up in this area again I would definitely stay! Thanks Mark and Judi
This property was a well-furnished apartment which provided privacy and many of the comforts of home. We found it a wonderful retreat while we visited relatives in the area. Definitely will look to return for future visits.
Great get-a-way for a weekend or a long term stay. The location is larger than my apartment in DC! Beautiful view and view. Bonus all the extras for the beach!
We were looking for a place out of the city but with east access - and what a perfect choice! Quiet, up in the hills, with gorgeous views and excellent amenities. Easy drive to downtown but also plenty to do just in the area. Mark was a great host and we loved our short stay!
Visiting family in the area, filled our needs, sleep, eat, shower! Views are awesome and the wildlife from the pool deck, pretty cool! We will be back.
